Pro

Very focused, allowing it to be the best at one thing

Instead of trying to be a both a calendar and to-do app, it focuses much more on the to-do aspect. There is a calendar view, however your tasks aren't organized by time - just by order. You can reorder the day's events, and if you don't get them done they will automatically roll over into the next day, so you can be sure that you aren't ever missing anything.

Pro

Fast, easy to use interface

On desktop, tasks are assigned to a single line. To see the full description, you can hover over that task. Editing can be done by double clicking, and re-ordering the events are as easy as dragging them around.

It also supports markdown - a common web formatting tool that allows italics by putting single asterisk () around words or phrases, and bold can be done by using two (*) before and after the phrase you want to be bold. It can also handle links by putting the text you want visible in square brackets, and the link in round brackets so this: [Slant Homepage](https://www.slant.co] would look like this: Slant Homepage

Cons

Con

No Windows app or client

Unlike rival to-do list apps such as Todoist or Wunderlist, Any.do does not have an official app for Windows. There’s also no indication that the company plans to build this app in the near future.

Con

Limited Any.do moments in free version

The free version gives only five Any.do moments per month, limiting productivity.

Con

Spotty auto-complete and voice recognition

Though the auto-complete feature is very smart in that it can access contacts and create a variety of tasks, it also might auto-complete with something entirely wrong. The voice recognition also has some issues with correctly understanding what is being said.

Con

Incomplete keyboard control

There’s no clear way to select and mark tasks using keyboard.

Con

No Android Wear and Apple Watch support

The Any.do app currently does not support Android Wear or Apple Watch, in contrast to rival to-do list apps such as Todoist or Wunderlist. Currently Any.do does not have plans to support these devices.

Con

Cannot see task details easily

To view subtasks, notes or other data you have to click or tap multiple times. There is no task view that shows everything you should know about the task.

Con

Slow animations and features

The app goes for a smooth feel with lots of things being automated and animated. This slows down it's use, especially on older phones.

Con

Awkward data entry

You cannot simply start entering tasks, one after another. You must click or tap the add icon to get a text entry field.

Con

All tasks default to "today"

While there is a 'someday' category, by default every task as an end date of today. This means you get constant notifications for quickly added tasks.

Con

Offline access not available in free version

Since the addition of the Premium plan, offline access to lists is not available for free Any.do users.

Con

Lack of power features like priority and labels

Any.do has only two levels of priority that can be assigned to tasks, namely Normal and High. There is no way to assign any sort of weights to tasks either. There is no feature to assign any sort of labels on them to be able to filter particular type of tasks. These features are very valuable to a power user.

Con

Invasive App Permissions

In order to be a complete solution, Any.Do can seem to take over your phone. For example, it monitors missed calls so you can schedule a call back.

Con

No Android support

Con

Subscription based will cost money each month

Instead of a single time purchase, Teuxdeux costs $3 each month, or $24 for a full year. There is a free 30 day trial, so at least you can try before put any money forwards, but a one time fee - even if it's $10 - is cheaper in the long run than a few dollars each month.
